Roshan Wanigasinghe v. Koswattge Chandralatha Perera and Anula Dissanayake – SC SPL. L.A. NO. 43/2011-2011

In the case between Roshan Wanigasinghe and Koswattge Chandralatha Perera (with Anula Dissanayake as additional respondent), the court addressed the issue of whether Special Leave to Appeal should be granted under Article 128 of the Constitution against the judgment of the Court of Appeal dated 26.01.2011. It was held that no sufficient basis existed to grant Special Leave to Appeal, resulting in a dismissal of the application. The principle reaffirmed is that the grant of Special Leave to Appeal is discretionary and must be supported by valid grounds established before the Supreme Court. This determination was grounded in constitutional provisions and aligned with established appellate standards, underlining that Special Leave is not to be granted absent compelling legal reason. No order
